The Polaris Anthology was delayed after all.

According to Amazon the new release date is May 30th, 2007.

However my contributor's copy has arrived, and I have scanned in the new cover.

It looks like the Polaris anthology will be getting a new cover. The marketing department has decided that it will appeal to a broader audience than anticipated and they want a cover that will reflect that.

This change is not expected to alter the currently planned January release date.

The anothology Polaris: A Celebration of Polar Science that contains my story "Frozen Witness", is now available for preorder at this page of Amazon.com, and other fine bookstores.

I have just sold a hard science fiction murder mystery "Frozen Witness" to editor/author Julie Czerneda for her upcoming anthology Polaris: A Celebration of Polar Science

The anthology will be illustrated by Jean Pierre Normand.
